To stay:
The Gara Rock Hotel is top of the list, with ocean views from bed and free-standing baths. The hot chocolates are particularly good - perfect after a wet walk.

Day trip:
Walk the costal path of Bolt Head around to Hope Cove, a neighbouring costal town (almost) rivalling Salcombe in its charm.

For the evening:
Summer days on the beach turn into nights, so big cool boxes of wine and sausages to barbeque are a must.
To buy:
Pasties and Doughnuts from The Bake House and pick & mix from Cranches sweet shop, with its concerningly Instagramable pink striped exterior.
